Anne, Tamora, Bas, Gan, Evon

Anne and Tamora reached the camp again without incident, surprisingly enough, the bird continued to follow the ranger, apparently having taken a liking to her. The lizardmen seemed a bit puzzled by it, but didn't immediately crap it and turn it into their dinner, and neither did the bird try to peck out their eyes.

By the time they arrived, the campfire had been reduced to embers, leaving those sitting or lying around it shrouded by darkness, only barely lit by the faint glow. They got there only a few minutes after Bas.

As they got there, the lizardman started to unwrap the bundle he was carrying.

Lorath

Aside from the glow marking a few fish and other aquatic creatures, Lorath's infravision showed him little, it's reach was quite limited and the lack was almost three miles across. There were many places a beast, even one as big as the tentacled thing, could hide.

Without bait or a trip into the lake, it seemed unlikely that he'd find it.

Ulik

(OOC: This is Caleb's character.)

Ulik arrived by the shore of the lake, the trail had lead him exactly where he had been told it would, and on the far side he could see the campfires and torches of the village that was supposed to be there. Except for what he could see by the light of a moon that was barely there, by the light of the stars and with his infravision, all was pitch blackness.

The village was supposedly where they were, but he had not been followed and no one seemed to be watching over him. What to do about the new land and it's inhabitants was up to him. He knew what was expected of him, but without someone holding a knife to his throat, it was hard to force him.

In the palm of his right hand he felt the bone ring he had been handed, smooth and featureless but for the faint etchings along it's surface. Under his feet he felt the sandy shore of the lake, still wet from the rainstorm that had ended just as he arrived through the portal. The same storm had left a few fallen trees for him to climb over as he made his way along the trail earlier.
